For Completing a Sidewalk, Trails & Path Network<br />
It is important to continue to celebrate the work that has<br />
been done to improve walks and trails in Minden.<br />
Ensure all new walks and trails comply with guidelines.<br />
Clarify strategy regarding retro-fitting and repairing existing<br />
walks for accessibility.<br />
A detailed analysis and design will be required for the<br />
following projects to determine the feasibility (space /<br />
property available, public support, cost, etc.).<br />
Selected projects to be included in a Five Year Capital<br />
Improvements Budget. Public consultation should be<br />
a central component. Projects in order of priority<br />

Implementation Strategies Resources &<br />
Partners<br />
Incorporate sesquicentennial celebrations into<br />
the pedestrian bridge and Riverwalk Trail<br />
development.<br />
Clarify Minden’s policy on barrier-free design<br />
for all new and existing infrastructure.<br />
An "accessible" trail or walk is one that<br />
complies with legal standards for access by<br />
people with disabilities. The Accessibility for<br />
Ontarians with Disabilities Act (2005) and the<br />
Ontario Building Code - Section 3.8 Barrier<br />
Free Design are examples of legal standards<br />
against which a facility can be judged<br />
"accessible" or "not accessible".<br />
